9 2014 Texas Baseball Page 9 Head Coach Augie Garrido Seven trips to the College World Series (CWS). National Championships in both 2002 and Secondplace finishes in 2004 and Seven Big 12 Conference Championships (2002, 2004, 2006, 2007, 2009, 2010, and 2011) and four league tournament crowns (2002, 2003, 2008 and 2009). These are the results and why head coach Augie Garrido was hired to guide the Texas baseball program in During his first 17 years on the Forty Acres, Garrido became the all-time winningest coach in NCAA Division I baseball history by capturing his 1,428th career win on June 9, 2003, (a 6-5 Texas victory over then No. 1 Florida State during NCAA Super Regional action in Tallahassee, Fla.). He brought Texas back to the CWS for the first time since 1993 during the 2000 campaign, and returned the Horns to the pinnacle of collegiate baseball in 2002 by leading UT to a record that produced the school s first-ever Big 12 regular-season and tournament championships as well as its first national title since He duplicated the feat in 2005, guiding the Longhorns to their sixth National Championship - the second-most for one school in NCAA history. Texas rise under Garrido has been the culmination of inking 16 straight top 15 recruiting classes and producing teams that have stood tall against perennial powers such as LSU, Miami (Fla.), Stanford and USC. Now, in his 18th year in Austin, Garrido, who was selected as both the 2002 and 2005 National Coach of the Year, looks to keep the program in contention for college baseball s ultimate prize each and every season. Garrido is the second coach in Division I baseball history to tally 1,700 or more career victories. He is one of only two Division I coaches to ever win 500 or more games at two different schools and the only coach to ever win 600 or more games at two different schools. He is also the first coach to lead teams from two different schools to national crowns (Cal State Fullerton & Texas), guide squads to National Championships in four different decades, and is one of only three coaches in history to win five or more NCAA titles (1979, 1984, 1995, 2002, 2005). Garrido has earned 14 trips to the CWS and 31 NCAA Regional Championship appearances, including 13 at Texas, while garnering National Coach of the Year honors six times (1975, 1979, 1984, 1995, 2002, 2005), regional coach of the year accolades on seven occasions (1975, 1979, 1984, 1995, 2002, 2004, 2005) and conference coach of the year distinctions eight times (1987, 1995, 2002, 2004, 2006, 2007, 2010, 2011) after leading his clubs to 25 league crowns. The Vallejo, Calif., native is just the 13th coach in UT s 120-year baseball history, and, with the exception of the war years of when Blair Cherry was at the helm, is only the fourth Texas head coach since As a result of his unique coaching style, Garrido has been ranked as one of the top three baseball teachers in the nation by Major League Baseball Directors of Player Development. To deserve that distinction, Garrido has coached three Golden Spikes Award winners, four National Players of the Year, six College World Series MVPs, 52 All-Americans, 14 All-League MVPs and 119 professional players over his career. He has also had 16 of his players selected in the first round of the Major League Baseball Draft, including Longhorns Beau Hale (No. 14) in 2000, Omar Quintanilla (No. 33) in 2003, both J.P. Howell (No. 31) and 2005 American League Rookie of the Year Huston Street (No. 40) in 2004, the duo of Drew Stubbs (No. 8) and Kyle McCulloch (No. 29) in 2006, Chance Ruffin (No. 48) in 2010, Big 12 Male Athlete of the Year Taylor Jungmann (No. 12) and Corey Knebel (No. 39) in In addition, during his 17 years at UT, Garrido has tutored the skills of 26 players who have earned All-America honors a total of 33 times, 23 Freshman All- Americans, including a school-record four in 2006, 149 All-Conference performers, 11 USA Baseball National Team members and 92 players who have gone on to play in professional baseball. Garrido s name is also held in high regard when people speak of his accomplishments in the College World Series. He is currently tied for second with five National Championships (trailing only Rod Dedeaux s 10 at USC), ranks fourth and sixth, respectively, in victories (38) and winning percentage (.655; 38-20), as well as fifth in both series games (58) and appearances (14) among all-time coaches. He is also one of only eight men in history to coach two or more different teams in the CWS and is only the third Longhorns head coach (Bibb Falk & Cliff Gustafson) in the 120 years of Texas baseball to lead the Horns to Omaha.

27 2014 Texas Baseball Postseason History Page 27 Texas National Championship Teams 2005 COLLEGE WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS Returning 15 players from a team that went and finished in second place at the College World Series (CWS) in 2004, the Longhorns began the 2005 season ranked No. 1. With high expectations in tow, Texas lived up to its preseason ranking early on by rattling off 16 straight wins, including a three-game sweep of No. 5 Stanford at home, to open the year. Following their first loss of the season at No. 10 Arizona on March 5, the Horns proceeded to win their series with the Wildcats by a 2-1 count, earn a 7-0 victory over No. 9 Rice and post three wins over Purdue to close out their nonconference slate with a 21-1 record. Big 12 Conference play started with three losses to No. 16 Baylor, but Texas rebounded by winning 13 of its next 15 league tilts, including series wins at No. 4 Nebraska and at Oklahoma State. Also included in that stretch was a 7-6 victory at No. 15 Rice and a three-game sweep of Oklahoma at home that included a no-hitter by redshirt freshman Adrian Alaniz, the 19th in school history. Despite the surge, the Longhorns dropped three of their final four conference road games and settled for a third-place finish with a mark. Texas headed to the Big 12 Tournament in Oklahoma City, Okla., with a number of players unavailable due to injuries. After dropping their opener, the Longhorns responded with wins over Kansas and Oklahoma State to move into the semifinal round. Although they battled toe-to-toe with No. 13 Baylor in the semifinals, the Bears pulled out a one-run victory and eliminated UT from the Big 12 Championship. With a record, the Horns received an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament. They also gained some time to rest their injured players prior to hosting one of the 16 regional tournaments at Disch- Falk Field, which included Arkansas, Miami (Ohio) and Quinnipiac. Following an opening-round win over Quinnipiac, the Horns incurred a tough 9-2 loss to Arkansas and faced elimination. With their backs against the wall, Texas posted wins over Miami and the Razorbacks to force a deciding game in the regional against Arkansas. Scoring three unanswered runs between the sixth and eighth innings during the the clinching contest, UT broke a 2-2 tie and captured its 30th regional title with a 5-2 win. With the victory, Texas moved on to the super regional round to face No. 8 Mississippi in Oxford, Miss. Assigned the tough task of having to take two of three games from the Rebels on the road to advance to Omaha, the Longhorns began from behind. Although they held a lead late in the opener, the game was suspended until the next day due to thunderstorms. In the resumption of that contest, Ole Miss put together an improbable fourrun seventh off NCBWA Stopper of the Year J. Brent Cox en route to clinching a 6-4 victory. Facing elimination, Texas had to pull out a victory a few hours later to keep its hopes alive. Riding the arm of Alaniz, who allowed only one run over 6.2 innings, UT built a 3-1 lead heading into the seventh. Buck Cody pitched a scoreless 1.1 frames to move the game to the ninth. The Rebels managed to load the bases with one out against Cox, but the All-American induced a game-ending double play. The super regional now came down to one final game on June 13. While both teams scored early, the game settled down into a 3-3 tie heading into the bottom of the sixth. Will Crouch hit a solo home run and Robby Hudson added an RBI-single to give UT a 5-3 lead. Ole Miss responded with a run in the eighth, but UT came right back in the bottom of the frame with a run of its own to make it a 6-4 game. Cox came on for the ninth and with two runners on and two outs, he struck out his next batter to send Texas to its 32nd CWS appearance. Advancing to Omaha for the fifth time in the last six seasons, the Longhorns faced a tough road with Baylor, No. 1 Tulane and Oregon State in their half of the eight-team bracket. In the opener, Texas drew the Bears who the Horns had lost to four straight times during the season. Getting on track against No. 4 Baylor early, Texas received a firstinning, two-run home run from All-America Seth Johnston. Alaniz and Cox took care of the rest, limiting the Bears to one run on eight hits to seal a 5-1 victory. Top-ranked Tulane was next on Texas slate. Handed a 2-0 lead in the top of the first, UT starter Kyle McCulloch scattered six hits over seven innings and fanned seven Green Wave to combine with Cox on a 5-0 win, the Longhorns first CWS shutout since Needing one more win to play for the National Championship, Texas faced Baylor, once again. Trailing 3-2 in the bottom of the eighth, UT plated the tying run when Nick Peoples scored on a sacrifice fly by All-American Drew Stubbs. After a Bears rally was averted in the top of the ninth on a diving catch by Stubbs that resulted in a double play, Chance Wheeless, who had suffered a shoulder injury earlier in the game, led off the bottom of the inning with a dramatic solo home run to lift Texas to a 4-3 victory. Playing for the national title for the third time in the last four years, the Horns would now face SEC Champion Florida in a best-of-three showdown to decide the 2005 crown. In game one, Texas built a 4-0 lead by the fourth, which was more than enough for Alaniz and Cox. The pair combined to allow only two runs on four hits while striking out 11 in a 4-2 victory. With Florida facing elimination, McCulloch delivered again. While the first-team All-Big 12 hurler held the Gators hitless through the first four innings, the Horns grabbed a 2-0 lead on a RBI-single from David Maroul in the second and an error in the fourth. Two innings later, Wheeless connected on a solo home run in front of a three-run round-tripper by Maroul to give Texas a 6-0 lead. Florida cut the lead to 6-2 in the seventh on a two-run home run, but Randy Boone and Cox worked a combined 2.1 innings of one-hit relief to seal the Horns sixth National Championship. Throughout the season, a different Texas player stepped up to lead the way. Accolades for the Horns included three All-Americans, two Freshman All-Americans and 16 All-Big 12 selections in addition to Augie Garrido earning National Coach of the Year for the sixth time in his career. Texas had six players named to the CWS All-Tournament team and six tabbed to the NCAA Austin Regional All-Tournament team. Taylor Teagarden earned the regional s Most Outstanding Player and Maroul picked up that same honor in Omaha.

28 2014 Texas Baseball Postseason History Page 28 Texas National Championship Teams 2002 COLLEGE WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS Prior to the start of the 2002 season, head coach Augie Garrido hung a list of goals for the upcoming year on the wall of the Longhorns locker room. The list read as follows: Win the Game, Win the Big 12 Conference, Win the Big 12 Tournament, Win the NCAA Regional, Win the NCAA Super Regional, Win the College World Series. While some of these goals may have seemed lofty at the start, the list revealed a process of development and a perspective to maintain throughout the course of a college baseball season. With their focus set, the Longhorns opened the campaign with a 13-2 overall record, but stumbled out of the gate in Big 12 Conference play with a 2-4 mark. Resilient in their quest for Texas first-ever Big 12 title, the Horns rebounded by winning 17 of their next 21 conference tilts and following a series sweep over Texas A&M, finished the Big 12 season with a 19-8 record and claimed their first conference crown since Texas headed to the conference tournament, at The Ballpark in Arlington, as the league s No. 1 seed. Texas dropped an 8-4 decision to Texas A&M in its tourney opener and had its back against the wall in the double-elimination bracket. With the odds heavily against them, the Horns proved their mettle again with wins over Oklahoma State and Texas A&M and a doubleheader sweep of Oklahoma to reach the title game against Nebraska. Tied 6-6 heading into the top of the 10th inning of the championship game, the Horns plated three runs for a 9-6 win over the Huskers and their first-ever Big 12 Tournament Championship. During its league tournament run, UT set tournament records for home runs (10) and pitcher strikeouts (47). With two titles in hand, the Longhorns hosted their first NCAA Regional Tournament since Texas made quick work of the fourteam field by claiming a 7-2 victory over Central Connecticut State in their opener and notching consecutive wins over Baylor to advance to the NCAA Super Regional round. Paired against in-state rival Houston in a best-of-three series at Disch-Falk Field, Texas had to fight from behind as UH stunned the opening-game crowd of 7,209 with a 2-0 victory over the Horns. Never doubting their ability to come back, the Horns responded in game two with a 17-2 win over the Cougars to even the series at 1-1. In a winnertake-all game, UT earned a 5-2 win for the super regional title and its NCAA-record 29th CWS appearance. In their CWS opener vs. Rice, who they had defeated twice during the season, the Longhorns posted a hard-fought 2-1 victory, giving UT its first CWS win since 1993 and the first-ever CWS victory for a Big 12 Conference school. Texas drew Stanford in the winner s bracket and pulled off an 8-7 triumph over the Cardinal, putting the Horns within one game of the championship game. Stanford survived its elimination game, setting up a rematch between the Horns and the CWS runner-up in each of the past two seasons. The Cardinal jumped out early in this matchup, but Texas fought back and snapped a 5-5 tie in the top of the seventh with a solo home run from junior Dustin Majewski for its third one-run victory of the CWS and its first berth in the National Championship Game since Facing South Carolina in the title game (a rematch of the 1975 national title game that UT won 5-1), Texas sent All-America lefthander Justin Simmons to the mound. After the Gamecocks took a 1-0 lead in the top of the first, the Horns jumped in front by a score of 4-2 at the end of two full frames before establishing a 7-2 advantage after a three-run home run from senior Chris Carmichael in the fifth. South Carolina pulled within 8-6 by scoring two runs in both the seventh and eighth innings, but UT answered with four more runs in the bottom of the eighth and freshman Huston Street recorded the final five outs to close out the 12-6 win and give Texas its first national title since Street earned the CWS Most Oustanding Player Award after posting a CWS-record four saves. Simmons, Majewski and sophomores Tim Moss and Omar Quintanilla were named to the CWS All-Tournament Team. A school-record 11 Longhorns garnered All-Big 12 accolades and four others picked up All-America recognition. Finishing with a mark Texas was led by more than just a few select individuals. The 2002 Longhorns won with teamwork and unselfishness as each player on its roster came through with big plays and clutch performances to help UT win each of the five championships that it set out to claim at the beginning of the year.

29 2014 Texas Baseball Postseason History Page 29 Texas National Championship Teams 1983 COLLEGE WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS 1975 COLLEGE WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS Some seasons are called storybook in the clichés of sports, and some are just beyond that. For Texas, the 1983 season still ranks in another category. The Longhorns won their fourth national championship their second under head coach Cliff Gustafson in five straight games at Omaha. The championship season, however, was one where UT kept dodging bullets on the way to the throne. Texas faced elimination in the six-team regional, and then had to come from behind to win in four of its five College World Series (CWS) games. It was Gustafson s ragtag army a team that won hearts as well as games. Texas finished 66-14, playing and winning more games than any team in school history. The Longhorns did it with the traditional Gustafson mainstays: great pitching and defense. Texas led the nation in pitching with a 2.72 staff ERA and finished fourth in team fielding with a.966 percentage. Pitcher Calvin Schiraldi was named an All-American with a 14-2 record, and he and teammates Roger Clemens (13-5) and Mike Capel (13-1) all ranked in the nation s top 10 in victories. Texas claimed its 56th Southwest Conference title with an 18-3 record, seizing the title in the next-to-last league series of the year. In big moments, Texas was superb, but at other times it was not. That was the interesting enigma that was the 1983 team; it could lose a doubleheader to an unknown non-conference foe and then sweep a series against such impressive opponents as Cal State Fullerton and Arizona State. Its heroes were many and varied. First baseman Jose Tolentino hit.339, collected 67 hits and drove in 73 runs, while Kirk Killingsworth appeared in 30 games as a reliever and had a 12-3 record. In the team s 66 wins, 16 different players delivered game-winning blows. The club faced elimination two games into the six-team regional at Disch-Falk Field, but bounced back to beat Tulane and Pan American and toppled Mississippi State twice to advance to Omaha. At the CWS, Texas defeated James Madison in the opener and came from behind to defeat Oklahoma State, Alabama and Michigan before scoring a 4-3 championship victory over Alabama. By winning the College World Series in five straight games, the Longhorns became only the 10th team in NCAA history to go through the Series unbeaten. It was the kind of season of which national championships are made, so it was not all that unlikely when Texas and Cliff Gustafson won the NCAA College World Series and returned the national title to UT for the first time in 25 years. Records fell and the national championship pennant went up as the Longhorns recorded a 59-6 mark, which included a Southwest Conference record of In what was expected to be the toughest SWC race in years, Texas opened with a come-from-behind, extra-inning win over Houston and then stormed through the league. Only a bottom-of-the-ninth homer by Texas A&M in the season s finale kept UT from becoming the conference s first unbeaten team since It was Texas 50th SWC title in the league s 60 years of competition and it served as the launching pad for the Horns to sweep through the South Central Regional against South Alabama, Louisiana Tech and Pan American. While the hitters were batting their way to records, the pitchers were chalking up a school-record 16 shutouts. Jim Gideon, who closed his Texas career with a record 40 victories, and Keith Moreland, who set numerous hitting standards, were both named All-Americans for the second time. Another pair of stars stole the limelight as Texas claimed the national crown in Omaha. Stealing the show were sophomore Mickey Reichenbach, who was the Series Most Outstanding Player with a.455 batting average, three doubles and a home run, and Richard Wortham, who was named to the All-Tournament pitching staff after blitzing South Carolina, 5-1, in the championship game. Texas began the College World Series (CWS) with a 4-2 win over Oklahoma, but a 5-2 loss to Arizona State dropped the team into the loser s bracket. On the brink of elimination, the Longhorn hitters came to life, posting a.363 batting average in wins over Seton Hall (12-10) and South Carolina (17-6). With three teams left in the Series Texas, Arizona State and South Carolina it was time to draw for the bye to the championship game. Texas trainer Spanky Stephens, who had started as a student trainer and had made every trip to Omaha, picked the envelope for the Longhorns. Texas received its long-awaited break as Arizona State and South Carolina had to play the elimination game. South Carolina knocked off Arizona State, 4-1, to set up the showdown between Gustafson, who rose through a storied career as a Texas high school coach to become one of the nation s premier collegiate coaches, and Bobby Richardson, who made his way to college coaching after being an All-Star second baseman for the New York Yankees. The tone was set early as Reichenbach hit a two-run home run in the third inning to stake Texas to a 3-0 lead. Wortham limited the Gamecocks to four hits while fanning nine batters to secure the win. Following the victory, the Longhorns returned to a cheering crowd in a packed Austin airport, bringing with them the CWS title.
